Just to let you know, I am currently on summer vacation and will not be able to attend today’s meeting.

Thanks. I am at the European Identity Conference and will not be able to join the call, unfortunately.

I have written section 7.3 of the white paper. If I have time today, I would be happy to briefly explain the purpose and what I have written. For detailed feedback, I would appreciate if you could leave comments or make corrections directly in the Google document.

  1. Personal AI agents will need to have key management to make payments

  2. Personal AI will need identity data in order to tailor the LLM

  3. Personal AI will need privacy preserving data enclaves, else it loses its data over time.

See you next meeting on the 15th August
